Roccat Kave 5.1 Surround Sound Gaming Headset - £64.95 delivered @ Zavvi!


£64.95

66°

FOUND BY: millarcat 1 month, 19 hours ago

Cheapest I can see these elswhere is £75, they are also £79.99 on Amazon & Play.com.

Imagine your advantage within the heat of the battle when you exactly hear where your opponents are before you can actually see them. Knowing the position of your enemy is half the frag. Realistic 3D surround sound makes you locate your opponents easily by the noise they generate.

The desktop control enables you to adjust to situations quickly with sound and microphone mute buttons and volume control for different channels.

Imagine a headphone,not with simulated,but with four very real 40mm speakers arranged at a 12 degree angle embedded into the earcups, plus two additional vibration units. A true advantage, because no matter which game you play, opponents coming from behind and from the side you can find in almost any game. That also goes for the ROCCAT Kave.

Thanks to the microphone with mute LED, the times of accidently giving away information are over.
Due to the illumination on the micro itself, you can tell whether the micro is muted.

The Kave is foldable and of compact design, it's safe and easy to carry.

* REAL 5.1 SURROUND SOUND - with speakers aligned at a 12° angle
* MICROPHONE WITH MUTE LED - fully rotatable and completely removable
* TIPNCONTROL DESKTOP REMOTE - for central management of all volume functions
* DUAL SOUND-PROFILE - with movie and game settings
* ADJUSTABLE VIBRATION UNIT - for a realistic gaming experience

Better off going for the Goldrings if the offer is still on IMO: http://www.hotukdeals.com/item/49801...e-noise-reduct

I had Speedlink Medusa 5.1 headsets and they both didn't last more than a few months. The sub (or 'vibration units') never seem to have a long life expectancy and eventually just died. It might not be the case for these, but 5.1 headphones are a bit of a gimmick anyways IMO.

i had the speedlink medusa, paid a lot for it after reading great reviews. the speakers started farting and popping after a few weeks so i opened them up only to find lots of masking tape separating wires, awful quality. i hope these speakers are better, ive owned about 6 headsets so far and i am still looking for a good one.
